According to the Free Will Astrology Horoscopes in the Chicago weekly:
Gemini (Becca, that's you. A shout-out to your whole Masquerade theory)
"Most of us lie regularly. Studies say the average person unleashes three fictions per day. Our deceits are often harmless, designed to avoid hurting someone's feelings or to spare ourselves from inconvienence. Still, the habit is so unconscious it puts us in peril of falsifying more important matters. Your task in the soming week, Gemini, is to investigate your tendency to distort the truth. The masquerade season presents you with an oppurtunity to do this in a fun way: through parody and esaggeration. For your Halloween persona, you could be "The Big Liar." At parties, tell nonstop whoppers. Wear white clothes on which you've written fibs like "I am President of Madagascar," "Eating ice cream and potato chips prevents cancer," and "Luxembourg is hiding weapons of mass destruction."
Aquarius (That'd be me apparently)
"The omurasaki butterly is native to East Asia. Though beautiful and graceful, it's unusually big and strong. In territorial battles over who gets the right to suck the sap of the kunugi and konara trees, it beats out all of its butterfly competitors, and is even known to chase away birds that try to horn in on its sweet treat. I suggest that you dress up as the big, purple-winged omurasaki this Halloween. It will symbolize your soul's growing ability to be elegant yet tough---to be gliding and lyrical yet willful force of nature."
If you say so....
but I think I'll leave the whole drinking tree sap thing to Jono

Why is it so cold in my room??
Nov. 2nd, 2004 11:24 pmWhy is it that I always end up in a room with chronic temperature problems? And why are those always problems with being too cold? Storm windows are down... that should help, right?

I like Christmas. I like the things it reminds me of.
Like long car rides to see Jeremy. Crunching around and leaving footprints in the snow. Being chased around his yard because I pelted him with a snowball and he wants to stuff snow down my neck, dropping scarves and things I try to scramble out of reach. That horrible Christmas mix tape that he plays in his car when he decides the radio sucks (which is... all too often) (and in like... May, June... also August...) It also reminds of me hanging Christmas lights around the house. Christmas lights... and strings of lights just in general, happen to be one of my favorite things to oogle over....
Making fun of Jeremy because he refuses to wear hats, and instead wears his crazy, disintegrating ear-muff band thing.... my crazy fuzzy leopard print scarf and derobing myself as soon as I step into the roasting lobby of Pierce on numerous evenings/afternoons/nights while waiting for Jeremy to come down from the 10th floor to get me... sticking my icicle hands up his shirt to sap his warmth and the immediate shocked "*GASP, pant pant* Catherine!" as he shooes my hands and holds them away, and then scolds me ^.^ (I cackle just thinking of it, although I know I'm so horribly mean)
Although my family goes to my Poppa's in Florida every year... I really do prefer the snow... although I wish I could have the fresh orange juice with the snow, that would be cool. But kinda impossible because the orange grove is like 3 blocks from Poppa's condo-community and it just wouldn't work in the middle of Michigan....
I suppose I will have to settle for Bubble Island, or for apple cider at home..
And, yes this Christmas natsukashii blurb does have a founding in reality---we just watched the Noel episode of the West Wing which happens near Christmas...
Ok, ok, I know, it's a stretch, but I never claimed to be coherent, congruent, or lack tendencies to fall off on completely random tangents, or anything of the sort!
